After constant use the faders may need to be cleaned and lubricated
from time to time. This will ensure long life and keep a smooth feeling
throughout the fader's lifetime. Follow the instructions below to lubricate
and clean your faders:
Removing a fader:
1. Make sure mixer is powered off and power supply is disconnected from
back of mixer.

screws on the fader plate (removing the 2 inner screws will detach the

DESCRIPTION OF FUNCTIONS
1. Microphone 1 input - This combo (1/4”/XLR) connector is used to
connect a microphone. The volume is controlled by the MIC 1 knob.
2. Mic 1 level - Controls the input level of Microphone input 1.
3. Mic equalizer - Individual controls for high frequency, midrange, and
low frequency equalization. The EQ controls both Microphone inputs.
Note: Any changes made to EQ settings will change the overall
output level.
4. Pre fader listen - Selects the channel(s) - 1, 2, or 3 - to be
previewed in the headphones.
5. Channel faders - Controls the output volume of each channel. The
signal is routed to the line faders after the gain, EQ, pan, and effects.
6. Crossfader - The crossfader is used to cross fade between channels
1 and 3.
7. Kill switches - Kill switches are used to completely eliminate Hi,
Mid, or Low frequencies from the audio. This can be used as an
performance effect.
8. Headphone outputs - This is the headphone output jack to connect
your headphones.
9. Cue pan - Fades the headphone output between the PFL signal
(selected by the Cue Select buttons) and master output, effectively
allowing the user to preview a mix.
10. Cue level - Controls the volume of the headphone output.
11. Booth level - Controls the booth output level. This is basically a 2nd
output. It is usually used for monitoring in a DJ booth, but can be
used for various applications.
12. Master output Pan- This is the pan or balance control for the mas-
ter output.
13. Master output level - Controls the overall output level of the mixer.
14. Output meters - These LEDs let you know if the audio coming out
of the mixer is loud enough (or too loud!). If the LEDs reach the red,
the mixer is probably clipping, or distorting.
15. Input selectors - These toggle switches select the input source
between phono and line for each channel.
16. Input gains - Controls the input sensitivity level of each channel. An
LED meter is provided on each of the 3 channels for proper
adjustment of the levels.
17. Channel equalizer - Individual controls for high frequency,
midrange, and low frequency equalization with +9dB/Kill
adjustments. Note: Any changes made to EQ settings will change
the overall output level.
